Hi Bonnie

Bile duct enlargement is not a concern but since your doctor did recommends enzyme therapy then there is obviously some disturbance in the digestion as may be evident by a stool sample. Remember that small amounts of the CA pancreatic tumor marker ( I assume this is what you are referring to although there are other CA antigens) is present in the blood of even healthy people. You should direct your questions at your doctor who is more familiar with your case. Wait till all investigations are completed.
